Chapter 0951: The Competition for the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast

“Not bad!” Hong Peng nodded. Seeing the confusion among them, he continued, “That’s because my junior brother has the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron and the Chaos Bell!”
“Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron and the Chaos Bell?!” Everyone stared at Hong Peng.
Hong Peng said, “Yes. There is only one way to leave this Heavy God Space—through an exit in the north of it, which connects to the outside world. But to exit through that exit, one must pass through a Primordial Magnetism Space. This Primordial Magnetism Space was set up by that Heavy God back in the day, and it contains the Primordial Magnetism Spirit Wood Formation!”
“Primordial Magnetism Spirit Wood Formation!” Huang Long’s mind stirred.
“That’s right. The Primordial Magnetism Spirit Wood Formation is composed of 1,080 innate Primordial Magnetism Spirit Woods, and its gravity is 1,080 times that of this Heavy God Space!” Hong Peng explained.
“What?! 1,080 times!” Everyone’s expressions changed drastically.
After all, the gravity in this Heavy God Space was already ten times that of the outside world!
Ten times times 1,080—how enormous would that be?
“That’s why even twelve era-powerful warriors would find it difficult to escape this Primordial Magnetism Spirit Wood Formation!” Hong Peng said solemnly. The spatial gravity was simply too great; even twelve era-powerful warriors would struggle to move forward!
Everyone waited quietly for Hong Peng to continue.
“However, this is under normal circumstances. If twelve era-powerful warriors use sacred-grade path artifacts, they can still escape this formation!” Hong Peng looked at Huang Long.
This time, Huang Long understood. There were two conditions required to escape the Primordial Magnetism Spirit Wood Formation: the first was having the strength of twelve eras, and the second was possessing a sacred-grade path artifact.
“But Senior Brother, you’re only at the peak of the eleventh era right now?” Ouke voiced what everyone was thinking.
Hong Peng smiled and said, “I’ve been stuck at the peak of the eleventh era for over a dozeneras eras. I’m just half a step away from breaking through. All these years, I’ve been collecting materials to refine the Pantheon Pilgrimage Pill. Now, I’m missing one ingredient—a mature exotic beast’s inner core. Once I succeed in refining the Pantheon Pilgrimage Pill, taking it will allow me to break through to the twelveth era!”
“Pantheon Pilgrimage Pill!” Everyone exclaimed in shock.
On the list of Supreme Divine Pills, first was the Qiankun Sacred Pill!
And second was this Pantheon Pilgrimage Pill!
Huang Long was also surprised; he hadn’t expected Senior Brother Hong Peng to be able to refine the Pantheon Pilgrimage Pill!
Each Supreme Divine Pill was a closely guarded secret, let alone the second-ranked Pantheon Pilgrimage Pill.

“That year, I came to the Wasteland Continent and accidentally entered a powerful warrior’s cave. Inside, I obtained the secret recipe for crafting the Divine Pilgrimage Elixir!” Hong Peng said, seemingly reading the confusion on Huang Long and the others’ faces. Everyone suddenly understood. Huang Long also grasped why Hong Peng had come to the South Desert to capture the Scale-Feathered Tortoise Beast. “Let’s go. Now that the Scale-Feathered Tortoise Beast has appeared, we must seize it before the Heavy God Clan, the Fiend Valley, the Ice Sea Palace, and other forces!” Hong Peng said. Huang Long and the others nodded, fully aware of the importance of this mission. Thus, Hong Peng led them into the air and rushed swiftly toward the South Desert. Since they were not far from the South Desert initially, they soon reached its edge. There, they encountered more and more powerful warriors—some alone, some in groups of a dozen or so, and even some in groups of a hundred. All of them seemed urgent, clearly on their way to hunt the Scale-Feathered Tortoise Beast. Huang Long frowned; it seemed a fierce battle would be inevitable to claim it. Hong Peng, Huang Long, and the others also headed toward the center of the South Desert. When they arrived, they sensed waves of terrifying power coming from ahead, causing Huang Yi and the others to look grave. Judging from the intensity of those power waves, the combatants must be powerful warriors from at least ten eras ago. At that moment, Huang Long and Hong Peng entered the Sacred Cauldron and summoned it to approach. Soon, they saw four people surrounding a giant strange beast. This beast resembled a earth dragon, had wings, its entire body covered in feather-like scales like those of a phoenix, and its limbs were thick. It kept emitting a divine fire resembling that of a phoenix. The four attackers were all powerful warriors from the early stages of ten eras, on par with Ao Feng and Ao Xue. It was clear they were ancestors or clan leaders of a superpower faction from the Heavy God Realm. However, the Scale-Feathered Tortoise Beast was extremely strong, having reached the peak of the middle stages of ten eras—slightly stronger than the Dragon Rhyme, the Sacred Dragon Maiden. Though outnumbered and at a disadvantage, it had not yet been defeated. Whenever the four attacked, a soil-yellow rock scale would appear on its body, blocking their attacks. Sandstorms raged, the ground trembled, the beast’s roars shook the heavens, and flashes of swords, knives, palm prints, and punches appeared continuously. Its terrifying energy kept other powerful warriors at a distance, forcing them to watch from afar. Hong Peng and Huang Long also hid aside, not rushing to intervene. After a while, a loud roar was heard. One of the attackers managed to pierce the beast’s rock scale defense with his sword, causing a gush of blood to shoot into the air and one of its wings to be injured.

“This Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast is injured. Let’s attack with all our might and kill it quickly! Otherwise, when the people from the Heavy God Family, the Fiend Valley, and the Ice Sea Palace arrive, things will get troublesome!” one of them exclaimed in delight.
The other three agreed.
It seemed the four of them had already agreed to kill this Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast first, seize it before the three major forces of the Heavy God Family arrived, and then divide the spoils among themselves.
Before long, another deep sword wound that reached the bone appeared on the injured Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast, causing it great pain and fury.
Eventually, after being surrounded by the four, with more and more wounds and at the end of its rope, the beast was also badly injured.
Just as the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast was about to be killed by the four, the Hong Peng stepped in.
In the void, the Hong Peng threw a punch at each of the four. Four punch marks, like thunder from the primordial chaos, exploded loudly. The four were shocked and, ignoring the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast, turned to attack in return.
Seizing the opportunity, Huang Long activated the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron Formation and instantly appeared in front of the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast. The Hong Peng then slapped the void with a palm, sending the beast flying.
The Hong Peng was a peak warrior from the later stages of eleven eras. How could the already weakened Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast resist his strike? It was instantly sent underground, its flesh torn apart, on the verge of death, with no strength left to resist.
Huang Yi and the others channeled their power into Huang Long, who then grabbed the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast.
“Damn it! Leave the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast behind!”
“Kill it!”
The four were sent flying by the Hong Peng’s punch and spat blood. Seeing the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast about to be taken away by Huang Long, they roared in anger. Light surged from their bodies as earth, fire, water, and metal forces erupted from them, all attacking Huang Long at once.
“Overestimating yourselves!” the Hong Peng sneered. He slapped his hands together, and streams of primordial chaos energy, like giant vortices, spun around, crushing the attacks of the four into pieces. At the same time, the four were sent flying again.
Originally, it would have been difficult for the Hong Peng to seriously injure the four in one strike, but after fighting the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast, they were injured and their strength had greatly diminished, making it even harder for them to resist his attack.
As the four were sent flying again, spewing blood, the Mountain Scale Phoenix Scale Beast was captured by Huang Long and thrown into the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron.
“Hm, more experts are coming?!” The Hong Peng sensed an astonishing demonic aura approaching from 2 billion miles away.
“The master of the Fiend Valley, Old Fiend Che?” The Hong Peng was shocked inwardly.
